Members dfrensdorff Posted September 16, 2022 Members Report Posted September 16, 2022 Just off the bench … custom hand stamped Basketweave belt made to go with a custom buckle. Hermann Oak skirting w/ burgundy latigo lining. Quote
Members Hags Posted September 16, 2022 Members Report Posted September 16, 2022 Very cool. I'm in the process of making a holster, double mag pouch, and belt with suspenders for my XDm for practical pistol matches. I'm liking the basket weave, I use it on most of my holster reinforcing pieces. Nice job! Quote
Members Dwight Posted September 16, 2022 Members Report Posted September 16, 2022 Good looking belt . . . and I must say. you certainly have a ton more patience than I. My "grumpy . . . aggravated . . . exhausted" meter would have been pegging half way thru the belt. May God bless, Dwight Quote

Expand Thank you, and no, I did not make the buckle. It was made by Sheridan Buckle Co. It was brought to me by the owner to have the belt made. On 9/16/2022 at 2:59 PM, Gezzer said: Very nice !!!!
